Nunes, who debuted with the WEC in late 2008, looks for his third straight victory in the organization and his 14th win overall. The 26-year-old Brazilian has topped both Cole Province and Rafael Dias via unanimous decision since the promotional debut. Prior to joining the WEC, Nunes had posted 11 consecutive victories via stoppage (10 in the first round).

Davis, meanwhile, looks to build off his split-decision victory over Javier Vazquez in his WEC debut, which came at WEC 42 earlier this month. The 28-year-old IFL, Affliction and Sengoku veteran is 5-1 in his past six fights.
